We have the following:
(SCSI_UFS_QCOM && SCSI_UFS_CRYPTO) || (MMC_SDHCI_MSM && MMC_CRYPTO)

So lets take as example the scenario: (m && y) || (y && n).

The QCOM_INLINE_CRYPTO_ENGINE will be set to 'm' and the sdhci driver
will not be able to link properly since the ICE API is part of a module.

Therefore, if just one of SCSI_UFS_QCOM and MMC_SDHCI_MSM is built-in
and at least one of the crypto options are enabled, set the
QCOM_INLINE_CRYPTO_ENGINE to 'y' by default in order to make the
built-in one linkage will not fail.

Might not be the cleanest way to do this, so I'm open to suggestions.
